Awesome. Learning to love selflessly and bringing glory to God by trying our hardest and trusting the rest to him is not the easiest but it’s the only way to go through life. Depression in my experience has been my rejection of Gods plan for my life because I KNEW what was better and this possibly couldn’t be what’s best for me and there was NO way out...

But reality was that it’s not about me and my plans and the situation might be about others and I had to learn to trust God in this path. Also I came to realize that NOBODY has the perfect life and everyone has GONE through a trial, going through a trial... or just hasn’t lived long enough to go through their trial yet but everyone is called to submit their lives to Christ because holding on to what you think was your life to be will plunge you into depression for months when it doesn’t come to fruition... or if it does it’s because you ran over others to obtain it and the destruction of those relationships is not worth the material gain you obtained

Trials expose our hearts... Do we become bitter or destroy relationships to obtain what we want which will lead to depression if unobtained... or do we trust that God has a plan for our lives even if it looks nothing like we had planed. Best thing I did was turn my life over to Gods control and depression left me. I could have masked it with drugs but it wouldn’t have healed my bitterness. Nothing I could have done would have taken the weight of depression off my shoulders like turning my life over to the guy in charge and trusting he has a better plan
